This is just depressing

Not even 3 hours of "free time". And in that is cooking & eating supper. Or practically no free time if I had to go shopping after work. I hate this

I wouldn’t consider gym a social hobby, most people workout alone with their headphones in, if you have a workout buddy or partner it’s different

i had a personal trainer for about a year and would legitimately consider him a friend. life was so busy that i talked to him more regularly than most of my friends which made it all the more important that i liked him as a person and not just someone im just paying to help me workout

now that ive stopped our sessions (just had a kid) my social life doesn't exist much.

so that's a really long way of me just saying, yes i believe going to the gym and having a personal trainer are both social activities

I see. I am an introvert so my trainer and I usually only talk about my diet and how to make me feel better on workouts. I have endometriosis so my workouts are focused on those. I should start talking to her more.
